Berks county (hunting and hiking)

My reasons for a visit to Berks county.. To start off the beautiful mountains , We have Hawk mountain which is great for hunting fishing hiking kayaking and there are alot of farm lands and wet lands.

Berks County Reading Pa is great for shopping

Historic Berks County

We have outlets all over every thing you could think of . And there are many historical buildings in Reading as well. It has a Pennslyvania Dutch feeling everywhere many farmers markers to swap meets.

The Pagoda

Any trip to Berks you must see the Pagoda It sits atop of the city and has great viewing spots to over look the whole city and you can see all the mountains that surround it.

Pros and Cons

In a nutshell:Anything you want to do Berks has it from sking to kayaking to shopping to racing... You have choices in Pennsylvania :D
